In a nutshell, Hastings said Comcast favors its own Xfinity platform over Xbox with regard to caps the cable giant applies for data usage. Hastings writes: "If I watch last night’s SNL [Saturday Night Live] episode on my Xbox through the Hulu app, it eats up about one gigabyte of my cap, but if I watch that same episode through the Xfinity Xbox app, it doesn’t use up my cap at all."
